10 non-douchey rooftop bars

We all love a good rooftop bar with the breeze and the booze and the pretty sites for our eyes. But nothing ruins a night out or a nice bit of day drinking like an obnoxious crowd. You know the kind. The Beckys and Chads of the world. Lucky for us, non-douchey rooftop bars do exist. Here are 10 of the best ones for you to check out, asshole-free™.

The Aussie owner couldn't take all those kangaroo attacks (we kid) so they brought a little bit of Down Under to Brooklyn. There's Australian cuisine plus authentic Oz-bred beers at this pub created by the same folks that brought you Berry Park.

You can pretend you're a successful business tycoon as you stare from the top of the Empire Hotel at all the little people below before marveling at the amazing sunset. Then you can buy me a drink because you can afford it.

This is the least pretentious rooftop bar in all of Brooklyn, in that there's a small bar and a patio, and that's about it. But the lack of amenities mean that there'll be room for you to get in the entire skyline, unobstructed, without fear of paying $15 for a mixed drink.

In terms of rooftops, this is about as close as you're gonna get that tropical island trip you've been planning with your boo. Watch out for the palm trees and lean back in a comfy lounge chair with your margarita.
